I had my 120-Series lifted 2" about 11 months ago. At first all was sweet, but then a squeak started to develop on the front driver's side. Took the Prado back and it was 'tinkered with' and was OK again - for about an hour. Lovell's then modified some parts and took the Prado back and these new parts were fitted and all was OK again - for about a week and a half. Now it's squeaking again and I sent a mail to the supplier/fitter and Lovell's themselves. I am yet to hear back, but I'm confident I will...
In the meantime, has anyone else come across this? With Lovell's or anyone else?
When I say squeak, I mean SQUEAK! It's effin' loud... Driving at, say 80km/h on a fairly even black top, but undulating enough to work the suspension up and down a little I can hear it loud and clear with the driver's side window open. And that's over the tyre noise, engine noise, snorkel noise and the noise from my roof rack.
Anyone got any ideas? Where do I stand from a legal point of view as this clearly isn't 'fit for the purpose intended'...?
